• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message WPRO_XI_PROXY113 - Element &2 (value &1) must not be specified at this level ?

  Certainly! Here's a detailed explanation for the SAP error message:
  
  SAP Error Message:
  WPRO_XI_PROXY113 Element &2 (value &1) must not be specified at this level
  
  Cause:
  This error occurs during the processing of an XI (Exchange Infrastructure) or PI (Process Integration) proxy message when the XML message structure does not conform to the expected schema or message definition.
  Specifically, the error indicates that an XML element (denoted by &2) with a certain value (&1) has been found at an incorrect hierarchical level in the XML message. In other words, the element is present where it should not be according to the proxy's data type or message structure.
  This usually happens because:
  
  The XML message sent to the proxy contains elements in the wrong place.
  The message structure does not match the proxy's expected structure.
  There is a mismatch between the sender's message format and the proxy's data type.
  The message was manually altered or incorrectly generated.
  
  
  Solution:
  To resolve this error, follow these steps:
  
  
  Check the Proxy Interface Definition:
  
  Review the proxy interface in the SAP system (transaction SPROXY).
  Look at the data types and message structure to understand the expected XML hierarchy.
  
  
  
  Validate the Incoming XML Message:
  
  Use tools like the SAP PI/PO message monitor or external XML validators.
  Compare the actual XML message with the expected XML schema (XSD) or proxy structure.
  Identify where the element &2 with value &1 appears incorrectly.
  
  
  
  Correct the Message Structure:
  
  If the message is generated by an external system, fix the message generation logic to comply with the expected structure.
  If the message is generated inside SAP, check the mapping or the code that creates the message.
  
  
  
  Regenerate or Adjust the Proxy if Needed:
  
  If the proxy interface or data types were recently changed, ensure that all related components are consistent.
  Regenerate the proxy classes if necessary.
  
  
  
  Test the Corrected Message:
  
  After corrections, resend the message and verify that the error no longer occurs.

  The error WPRO_XI_PROXY113 indicates that an XML element is incorrectly placed in the message structure sent to an SAP proxy. The solution involves verifying and correcting the XML message structure to match the proxy's expected schema.
